Then we rented a house, and one night we moved from there to the house next door. I remember carrying my clothes across the yard and thinking, This is weird, but it's an easy move."
"Kids write to me and say they are having these problems or they want to commit suicide or something. It's scary. I have to say, Listen, I'm just an actor, not a professional psychologist. If you need help, you should go and get it."
"When I see someone who just follows their dream and succeeds, and just does basically what they want to do and doesn't have to answer to anyone, obviously not harming anyone, that's great."
"I can remember my parents fighting and us kids wondering who was going to go with whom if they got divorced."
"These are the most important people in my life. You know, I would die for these people. If someone were to harm my family or a friend or somebody I love - I would eat them. I might end up in jail for 500 years - but I would eat them."

Vajoliroja yacht

owned by
Johnny Depp

It seems that Johnny Depp has taken his Captain Jack Sparrow role, the inimitable commander of the mythical Black Pearl in his blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean series too seriously. His private 156 foot yacht makes us believe the same. This mega yacht does not have the same looks as the other modern yachts, which are adorned with the mega badge, but it has got a vintage, early 20th century classic look and features old-style class and elegance, that are inconspicuously missing in other yachts.

 

A boat lover’s dream vessel, the Vajoliroja got its quite unpronounceable name by conjoining the first two letters of his four family members, Vanessa, Johnny, Lily Rose, and seven-year-old Jack. This steam-powered yacht was built in 2001 and consists of a formal dining room, a master suite, and four guest cabins. Although he hired the famous L.M Pagano for designing interiors, but a look at the inside and it’s clear that Johnny boy himself has got an interior designer’s eye. Every object has got the actor’s touch.   Maroon is the dominant color inside the yacht, with plenty of it splashed on the chairs, beds and other places. An avid book reader, Johnny has got a bulging book shelf inside the yacht with modern classics stacked inside it in rows. The yacht cruises calmly at a 12 knot speed, using the power generated by its twin CATs.

 

And like many other yachts, when Johnny is not living away a sailor’s life, you can have the queen of luxuries at your disposal, as long as you have the bounty to splurge on it.
